What is the Viral TikTok Phenomenon of Pheromone Perfumes?

What if the simple act of spritzing a perfume could make someone fall in love with you? Pheromone fragrances promise to do just that and are causing a viral frenzy on TikTok, with #pheromoneperfume earning over 534 million views on the platform. Otherwise known as attraction perfumes and colognes, these mysterious fragrances consistently sell out online.

Besides their romantic perks, pheromone perfumes are also known to potentially increase business profits and/or tips for those working in the service industry and to boost confidence, which is particularly helpful for introverts or shy people. They give you that sense of indescribable allure that draws people to you.

Picky about scents? Brands like Eye of Love, which derive their plant-based pheromones from wild yam root,  even have an unscented version that can be worn on their own or combined with your own favorite scent, lasting up to eight hours. Eye of Love CEO Jacqui Rubinoff tells us:

“In 2024, pheromones have gone viral due to their perceived ability to enhance attraction and deepen connections between individuals. Pheromone-infused products offer a subtle yet effective way to boost confidence and create more engaging social interactions. As people prioritize authenticity and holistic well-being, the allure of pheromones continues to grow as a tool for enhancing relationships and personal fulfillment.”
